How do I find out what is the IP address of an web ex. (www.microsoft.com =
62.198.2.1). I can't get to my brother's web page from home but can from
work. Any ideas why I can't see it a home. Have DSL at both locations with
different ISPs.

If that doesn't work for some reason, ping it from a site

Can also try this from a command prompt (without the quotes):
"nslookup -q=a <website_name> 4.2.2.1"
This should query the DNS server at 4.2.2.1 and find out the IP address for
the website_name. You can leave 4.2.2.1 off if you want to use the
currently configured webserver on your machine.
